Yuuum !!! "Thanks for the pic"
-
"Thanks Ric" I waited for a reputable box maker before getting any, Phil has been around a while & I've seen his work several times, the boxes are build like tanks & very accurate for a handmade box, I wanted cnc boxes but I just won't pay that much. The 39 hole is my favorite also, reminds me of ebony wood. Ah !! what am I talkin about, I like em all.

Ah another killer..........................................Good ta see ya Bill !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't find my box of really weird pelts, I think there's 9 in a little keeper box somewhere, I'll keep diggin, they gotta be here somewhere ??
-
It's close !!

The pics don't do this one justice, the flaming orange & the yellow colors are extremely bright, I picked it right out of a pile of a few hundred. Super wet looks like a mirror & I love the color contrasts.

Just got some new cases. All Brazilian hardwoods. Of the two coffin boxes, one is Padauk & the other is Red heart. The 6 count wood is called Bubinga & finally the 39 hole is Wenge wood, really heavy it feels like a piece of iron, 5/8ts, 11/16ths & the top row is 3/4ths. Fantastic workmanship, I can't wait to get some more custom ones for my big handmade Germans. I am extremely happy with the quality & the attention to detail, you might know who made these, he makes a lot of boxes, Phil Thomas from Iowa. His prices are more than reasonable, I've seen his boxes both at the marble show & on Ebay. I'm gonna get some CNC work on the lids of once I settle on what I'm gonna fill em with.

I was just lookin at the boards, man a smidge high for a new board, think I'll be makin one !! Good luck on fillin the board Brad, can't wait to see the finished product !!

Looks like a Peltier miller zebra, a set of calipers for measurements & check for Aventurine. Looks like a biggie maybe 7/8ths or so. If "aventurine" & only that one seam for sure a Pelt miller zebra, of course it doesn't have to have av. to be a pelt Zebra but the presence of it would give a positive I.D. of being one right away.

I think oddball & Peltier are synonymous !! I'll take some group therapy pics of mine a little later "Great mibs Ric"

You can fix by left clicking above your top pic until a line appears then press backspace until you get up to your text. If it doesn't work wait till later and try again Bruce, at this rate this is gonna be a long post.

Pressman "Tiddledy Winks & Kids Lotto game" w/ Alley cup. I grabbed this because all the other cups I've found where all broken from being so thin. First double game I've seen too.

Here's a pic of the only one like it I've ever seen from Zaboo's Ebay sales a couple years ago,. It's either the same marble or it came off the rollers right after this one.

Is it a rainbo, a tracer, or an NLR, one side is opaque, one side is transparent. One side looks like an NLR the other looks like a rainbo with tracers of transparent blood red & white throughout both sides of the the mib
